Abstract/Contents:"In order to promote the germination of korean lawngrass (Zoysia japonica Steud.) seeds a gravimetric seed selection with a mixed chemical solution and the germination promotion with KOH treatment were studied and following results were obtained. 1. When immersed into methanol (S.G., 0.7) 14 percent of immature seeds were precipitated. 2. With water (S.G., 1.0) 36.5 percent of mature seeds were submerged. 3. In a mixture of carbon tetrachloride (S.G., 1.6) and ethylether (S.G., 0.7) in a ration of 4:6 the seed selection was most effective. 4. When treated with KOH solution the germination rate was 71.01 percent in contrast to 6.0 percent of germination without the treatment. 5. As for concentration of KOH solution, 15 percent depressed the germination (46.7%) whereas above 20% the germination rate was gradually increased (79.32%) up to 40 percent of concentration where the concentration started to depress germination ratio (77.32%). 6. Finally, in connection with the duration of KOH treatment, a time lapse of up to 20 minutes depressed the germination ratio (70.02%) and 30 minutes to 45 minutes increased this ratio to 94.52 percent, 60 minutes of treatment depressed the germination to 75.62 percent."
